For some reason it was the books of Robert Harris.

Can't remember why and now I'm all embarrassed about it all.

I've recently read Archangel, The Ghost, The Fear Index and Fatherland. All well written and entertaining.

I mean to say, it's not like he's Jefferey bastard Archer, is it?

Boy was my face metaphorically red for a while there!

But now I'm back to pale and interesting. Literally.


Still not been to, or had a beverage from a Starbucks, though.

Nandos.


Had my first visit to one in Norwich a few weeks back. Didn't know the form so a colleague guided me through the self-help delights of multiple sauces and endless pop-refills. As an experience, I think I left it too late.




Good to see you HB.

Self checkouts at the supermarket, it's not hassle free and slower than a normal checkout along with the soulless experience half the items failed when scanning...


Shan't be doing that again anytime soon, especially as chatting to it like it was a real person got me loads of funny looks (apparently they have done nothing recently and plan to do nothing but work this weekend!)

    • Copleston centre hire for adult parties 
    • Most churches rent out halls for children's' parties but rarely adult parties, Christ Church only does afternoon parties,   The East Dulwich Community centre hires out halls to 9 pm only and all music needs to be on a sound restrictor as is in a residential area. St Johns with St Clements have a small hall but not sure if they allow adult parties. Nunhead Green has a newish community centre with a couple of different size halls. Most places seem to charge around £40 ph  with a deposit of £100/200 (returned if no damage or excess cleaning needed.
    • Hello, Recently there have been various comments made on the forum which have resulted in heated discussions being had. I for one, hold up my hand and wanted to personally thank whoever is keeping the forum going.. remember when it was likely to close. We are all adults and should known when it is right to continue or just ignore or if really feel it necessary comment via pm. I have had a long relationship with the forum and have bought, sold, offered advice and in deed made friends on the forum over the years. It is a public forum after all and everyone is entitled to express their opinion and is also free. I am not as tech minded as most but with the season of good will approaching and-knowing in this economic climate how many people are  struggling, I  thought it would be a lovely idea, to perhaps set up a just giving page to raise funds for a local charity who might appreciate a contribution towards their Christmas festivities… On a practical side, might just be to complicated to administer as I am sure all have charities that we support so my other thought was not me, as I am useless but to set up a just giving page and whatever monies are raised, perhaps contribute to the festivities that use to be run by local shops or whatever.. Maybe even use a local church hall and just make it special for perhaps folk that find it difficult to access events or no access for say wheel chair users.. guess really, one is looking for guidance from the church and of course volunteers. Shoot me down if you must or feel the need but this is my view and no, sadly I won’t be around in the months before Christmas but can help remotely.
